 While the
"original" Super Banzuke Masters
Series
was a popular addition to the competition for the top players, it
somewhat lacked appeal to the general public. Because, while
every
player could aspire to one day make it to the Masters, the reality
remained that only the top-10 ranked players would be invited to
participate, while the competition remained meaningless for the vast
majority of passionate sumo games players. At the same time, the
results calculations for the SBMS, and the parallel Ladies' League
Masters Series (LLMS)
proved too laborious for the Super Banzuke
Kyokai, which was initially the reason the SBMS and LLMS were
discontinued.Now, with some inspiration from the "Prediction King" Series evident with Japanese Sumo Games, where the top-5 Japanese games are combined into one "Super" Yusho competition each basho, the Super Banzuke Masters Series emerges again from its ashes, with a wholly different format. Henceforth, all players are eligible to compete, and every player who finishes in the top-10 of any one of the 16 Super Banzuke games scores points towards winning the coveted Green Mawashi! The points breakdown is as follows: Yusho:
15 pts. ... Jun-Yusho: 12 pts. ... 3rd: 10 pts. ... 4th: 8 pts.
... 5th: 6
pts.
6th: 5 pts. ... 7th: 4 pts. ... 8th: 3 pts. ... 9th: 2 pts. ... 10th: 1 point. So, each game awards a total of 66 points. If players are tied for a position, the points are equalized (i.e. if two players tie for second, they both receive 11 points, and not 12 points each, etc.) so the total number of points awarded per game is always 66. In games with divisions, only the Makuuchi competition will count towards the SBMS. The player who wins the most points through their top-10 finishes, wins the Green Mawashi! The special prizes are determined as follows: Gino-sho is given to the player who scores best in both, daily and pre-basho games (who has the highest lower number of points in either of the two categories). The Kanto-sho goes to the player who scored top-10 finishes in the most games (regardless of points). The Shukun-sho finally goes to a player who has otherwise distinguished themselves. They must have won at least one of the individual game Yusho, and done so in either dominating fashion, or scored top-3 finishes in several games, or could be the Jun-Yusho winner of this competition. Sansho are awarded to players other than the Green Mawashi winner in order to recognize their achievements as well. |

With individual Yusho
in Sekitori-Oracle and GISP, backed up by a fourth place in UDH,
Frinkanohana is the deserved winner of the first new-format Super
Banzuke Masters Series, and receives the prestigious Green Mawashi with
a total of 37 points. Just one point back, OddSumo Rijicho Kojamuri takes the Jun-Yusho, and is awarded the Shukun-sho for his Yusho in Juryo Game, Jun-Yusho in Guess The Banzuke, and third place finish in UDH, the most top-3 preformances of any player in Hatsu 2004. The Gino-sho goes to Jakusotsu, who won the ISP Yusho and Fantasy Sumo Jun-Yusho, and ended up with a score of 11, which is the same as Daninowaka, but Jakusotsu gets the nod as he scored more total points. The Kanto-sho finally goes to Heikotoriki, who failed to finish in the top-3 in any of the games, but who racked up a total of five top-10 finishes, more than anybody else in Hatsu 2004. Congratulations to all the winners! |
